It is a Rancho lift. The offset on the wheels is a 5.5 which means I had to add 1" spacers so the tires would not scrub. I am told that I can go bigger with the tires. Does anyone know how big? I can't go much higher because the H3 will not fit into the garage.

Why bother with a lift if you're going to put 20's and street tires on it? To each their own but

They are not street tires. They are Nitto Grapplers.

I think what Sewie means is that the size are street tires. Grapplers are an all terrain tire which is pretty much a street,dirt tire and anything with that small of a sidewall are more street than off-road. Plus most people who lift their trucks stuff the wheelwells with big mud tread off-road tires, the main reason for lifting is to gain offroad clearance. The size tire you have is a 33x12...you can fit a 35x12.5 with NO lift!!
I think thats what Sewie means.

That and with a 20" wheel and the shorter sidewall if you air down much at all to get better offroad traction you're gonna have the wheel dang close to the ground and thos nasty wheel munching rocks...
IMHO.. For offroading you would have been better dropping to a 15" wheel and putting tires with much taller sidewalls

The wheels and tires were on the when the Hummer when I bought it new. I plan on going with 37's when it is time for new tires. Or maybe not.

for me i dont like the big rims on the h3 i prefer smaller rims with wide rubber , looks way meaner and more aggressive
not a fan of the 20" 22"ect
give me a nice 17" rim with nice beefy rubber
